Rare Fine Masterpiece Quality Print- The bodhisattva with Horse Head:
Bato Kannon is the wrathful Incarnation of the Mahasattva Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara of great compassion in Tantric Buddhism. In Japan, Bato Kannon has been termed the ‘Protector of Animals’
In Sanskrit, Bato Kannon means ‘Hayagriiva’ (transcription: 何耶掲梨婆), meaning ‘Horse Head.’ The ‘horse-headed Kannon is the only manifestation of Kannon expressing rage.’ Due to such nature, he is one of the Myoo Acala, Wisdom kings, warlike, wrathful deities of Esoteric Buddhism. For each of the six realms of existence (rokudō), the Bodhisattva of Compassion appears here as horse-headed Avalokiteshvara, one of six Avalokitesvaras.
Roku Kannon, six deities of mercy, was meant to save sentient beings of the six worlds: divine, heavenly beings (devas), demigods, Titans (asura), human beings, animals, starving spirits, and the damned. The Kannon saved not an only horse but also every Chikushodo (beasts). It is believed to guide and benefit the Chikushodo (the animal kingdom) among the Roku Kannon. Bato Kannon is dedicated to the animal world and is capped by the horse and flamed-haired.
